Has Big Shot Fallen in Love Today?-Chapter 826: The Home Sheng Tang Built

Sheng Tang gets along well with Cheng Lichuan’s girlfriend.

The meal went smoothly.

Cheng Lichuan thought Sheng Tang would be taking a few days off. Upon learning she was returning to the set in the afternoon, he was a bit puzzled by her.

"...Brother Lin Chuan, there’s something I need to tell you," Sheng Tang admitted.

Cheng Lichuan thought she was going to break up with Gu Jiahui, and briefly felt nervous: "What’s up? Did you have a spat with Jiahuai? Tell me, I’ll straighten him out for you."

Sheng Tang burst into laughter.

She quickly waved her hand: "No such thing! We’re doing well, no arguments. It’s just..."

She pondered her words, speaking halfway and then asked Cheng Lichuan, "Brother, it’s not far from here to the school, right?"

"Not far, eight subway stops," Cheng Lichuan said, "About twenty minutes, less than thirty minutes."

"Is the subway entrance far from your school?" 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Not far, right next to the school, five-minute walk to the main gate," Cheng Lichuan added.

Wang Sisi didn’t know what Sheng Tang wanted to say and stayed silent beside her.

Once Sheng Tang got the information, she asked, "Then why do you want to move out?"

Cheng Lichuan was stunned.

He really didn’t think this was what Sheng Tang wanted to talk about.

Cheng Lichuan was assigned an apartment at the school. He wasn’t married yet and was sharing it with two other teachers, in a three-bedroom, one-living-room house, occupying a small bedroom.

The house was much smaller than Gu Jiahui’s place and the facilities weren’t as good. It’s just more convenient being on campus, morning and evening.

The reason he moved out was to give the young couple some space.

When Gu Jiahui was alone, Cheng Lichuan naturally didn’t want to leave him feeling isolated, always sensing Gu Jiahui had no one to rely on.

Having Sheng Tang changed things.

As a young couple, who would want an outsider living at their place?

Cheng Lichuan even felt Sheng Tang and Gu Jiahui rarely spent the night together, possibly considering him.

That’s why he decided to move out.

"...Brother Lin Chuan, why don’t you move back in? Sisi, why don’t you also come live here? I’m often filming, promoting, and I can’t stay home much; Gu Jiahui also travels often."

Today when I came home, I realized it was just me in this big room. I thought about it, on days when I’m not home, Gu Jiahui must feel uncomfortable coming back to such an empty house," Sheng Tang said.

Cheng Lichuan felt a pang in his heart at her words.

He confessed honestly: "I was afraid I’d be disturbing you two."

"Our situation is special," Sheng Tang said. "If every so often I come home after filming, and there’s always someone at home, wouldn’t it be nice? I think maybe Gu Jiahui thought you had started a new life, that’s why he didn’t ask you to stay."

Young couples do indeed need their space.

But she and Gu Jiahui aren’t like that.

They are like two travelers who have come this far together. Without Cheng Lichuan, the apartment becomes increasingly uninhabitable.

Seeing Sheng Tang speak so earnestly about this, Cheng Lichuan hesitated: "I’ll ask Jiahuai, then."

After they parted ways, Cheng Lichuan and Wang Sisi went back to the school, while Sheng Tang returned to the apartment.

On the way, Cheng Lichuan dialed Gu Jiahui’s number.

Gu Jiahui had just landed at Beijing’s International Airport, received the call, and thought something was wrong: "What’s up?"

Cheng Lichuan briefly told him about having lunch with Sheng Tang earlier.

Gu Jiahui listened, remained silent for a few seconds.

Then, he earnestly said, "Since you moved to the school, I’ve indeed been staying at home much less. Sometimes, even when I’m in the city, I’d rather stay at a hotel."

With Sheng Tang at the set, Cheng Lichuan at the school, Gu Jiahui indeed stopped liking to go home.

Because it wasn’t home anymore.

Hearing him say this, Cheng Lichuan was overjoyed and moved back to Gu Jiahui’s apartment, frequently inviting his girlfriend over to spend the night.

Having seen this luxurious apartment, Wang Sisi also felt the school dormitory ought to be abandoned.

So, the two of them often stayed there.

When Gu Jiahui returned from a business trip a few days later, it happened to be the weekend and Cheng Lichuan and Wang Sisi were at home, he suddenly experienced a hint of familial warmth.

Just like at his aunt’s place, a real, tangible warmth.

This was something Sheng Tang had arranged for him.

Thus, he decided to take some time to visit the film set and see Sheng Tang.
